365 Project – Day 90

Bath is celebrated for the wonderful Georgian buildings throughout the city. One of the most beautiful is Pulteney Bridge that spans the River Avon.

365 Project – Day 84

365 Project – Day 83

Today, sadly, I attended the memorial service for a friend from our climbing club who died doing what he loved to do most. Because of this I have not had the opportunity to take a photograph for today. So here is one I made earlier. Bath balcony. 24 March 2014
